Usually, you don’t see the word “stylish” paired with “food storage.” This attractive set challenged my assumptions about these kitchen essentials.
These glass food storage containers in five sizes are pretty enough to keep on your counter. The set of nine even comes with a storage organizer to keep everything tidy. These containers are dishwasher-, microwave-, oven, and freezer-safe so your meals can go straight to your table.
This set of food storage containers is $245 at Nordstrom and comes in six subdued colors that will match any kitchen.

Does anyone have a kid who gets sunburns despite diligent sunscreen application? I swear I know how to apply sunscreen; I’m super pale and haven’t burned since I was a teen who didn’t bother with SPF. We use protective clothing as much as possible and for the areas that aren’t covered by clothing we slather her in SPF and reapply regularly. We try to stay out of the sun from 10-2 when possible. And yet she still ends up with red splotchy skin on a regular basis. The burns are mild, minimal pain and and usually fade overnight, but I still feel enormous guilt about having a kid who is constantly getting sunburned. I’m not sure what the solution is though.
